The Cosmic Question: Science, Reality, and the Search for a Creator
A Critical Guide to the Big Bang, Fine-Tuning, Life, Consciousness, and What Evidence Can—and Cannot—Tell UsBy Imad MuratspahicLength1h 45m
About this audiobook
Does modern science point toward a creator, or can the universe be understood without one?
The Cosmic Question explores what scientific discoveries can—and cannot—tell us about the existence of God. From the Big Bang and cosmic expansion to fine-tuning, quantum physics, biological evolution, and consciousness, this accessible guide examines the evidence behind some of humanity's deepest questions.
Explore arguments for a creator alongside serious objections involving probability, suffering, divine hiddenness, and the limits of scientific explanation. Discover how to distinguish established findings from philosophical assumptions, compare competing explanations, and evaluate bold claims without confusing uncertainty with proof.
With original examples, clear explanations, a practical argument-checking framework, and further reading, this book invites believers, skeptics, and undecided readers to investigate the relationship between science, reason, and the search for ultimate reality.
